What do you mean by this? Adjustable in what way?

Truly, taggedtypes are a really useful feature but I think the chance
of them being in the main tree approximatly nil, which is enough reason
to stay away from them.

You just need to store the pair (time,zone), I don't think domains are
flexible enough for that. A complex type maybe (but then you've just
reinvented taggedtypes, inefficiently :) )

Have a nice day,
